Theme and Plugins update or new install directly from blog admin

Inactive

User should be able search for plugins and themes directly from blog admin section, (possibly through xml/ajax) when clicks update plugin, once, all the new plugins, and themes are displayed in the blog itself, he/she should be select whatever he wants and download them directly to the wp. Once, downloaded if needed he can do the necessary configuration. Similar to Gallery 2.2

I am planning to include this functionality (browsing for and installing plugins directly from the admin interface) in the next release of PlugInstaller, which is currently able to download a specified plugin URL and check for updates on wordpress.org hosted plugins.
